Paul Menzel d3a3543a56 normal/menu: Do not treat error values as key presses
Some terminals, like `grub-core/term/at_keyboard.c`, return `-1` in case
they are not ready yet.

      if (! KEYBOARD_ISREADY (grub_inb (KEYBOARD_REG_STATUS)))
        return -1;

Currently, that is treated as a key press, and the menu time-out is
cancelled/cleared. This is unwanted, as the boot is stopped and the user
manually has to select a menu entry. Therefore, adapt the condition to
require the key value also to be greater than 0.

`GRUB_TERM_NO_KEY` is defined as 0, so the condition could be collapsed
to greater or equal than (≥) 0, but the compiler will probably do that
for us anyway, so keep the cases separate for clarity.

This is tested with coreboot, the GRUB default payload, and the
configuration file `grub.cfg` below.

For GRUB:

    $ ./autogen.sh
    $ ./configure --with-platform=coreboot
    $ make -j`nproc`
    $ make default_payload.elf

For coreboot:

    $ more grub.cfg
    serial --unit 0 --speed 115200
    set timeout=5

    menuentry 'halt' {
        halt
    }
    $ build/cbfstool build/coreboot.rom add-payload \
        -f /dev/shm/grub/default_payload.elf -n fallback/payload -c lzma
    $ build/cbfstool build/coreboot.rom add -f grub.cfg -n etc/grub.cfg -t raw
    $ qemu-system-x86_64 --version
    QEMU emulator version 3.1.0 (Debian 1:3.1+dfsg-2+b1)
    Copyright (c) 2003-2018 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers
    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -M pc -bios build/coreboot.rom -serial stdio -nic none

Currently, the time-out is cancelled/cleared. With the commit, it is not.
With a small GRUB payload, this the problem is also reproducible on the
ASRock E350M1.

README

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader.
GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more
robust, more powerful, and more portable.

See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the
GRUB 2 data and program files.

Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information.
The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>.

More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual,
accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2.

There are a number of important user-visible differences from the
first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please
see:
